Sludgiona

The third Tarlaxian freed, after a fashion. Because of Megumi’s zeal to fix the multiverse and its people, Sludgiona’s been stranded in the 1984 Ghostbusters’ universe. Acclimation syndrome is a genetic disease where, if you’re traveling the multiverse, some universes are so different in their physical laws that they may assimilate you. Sludgiona has such an affliction and is now stuck in her current universe. If she tried to get back and rejoin her people, she would die.

Nowadays, she’s been cured and can safely travel the multiverse.

First time I made a slimy creature.

Discornia

And here’s Turretorg’s fiancé, newly freed and ready to fight Vortech!

Bio:

A talented dancer and excellent musician, Discornia is a lovely sight on stage. Using her powers to generate light shows, she is known to be a stunner both literally and metaphorically. While not the best fighter, she caught the eye of Turretorg and they soon married.

Her powers were then forced into evil’s service as Lord Vortech and a handful of losers from the Tarlaxian Civil War brainwashed her and other Tarlaxians into serving Vortech.

She was liberated from Vortech’s service from Megumi and her friends and so fights the creature that enslaved her to end his reign of terror!

Turretorg

Here’s the first monster the Vortex Riders fight and free from Vortech’s control.

Bio:

Fierce, loyal, protective, clever, these are the qualities of Turretorg. After Scorpainia claimed the throne, Turretorg fought in the brief Tarlaxian Civil War. He was at the Battle of Phantom Creek and saved Scorpainia’s life. After the war ended, he was awarded the title of “Kagluk Meltar Tragaktar” (Person who Sets the Warrior’s Standard), the highest award any Tarlaxian can receive.

Unfortunately, Lord Vortech wanted slaves. Turretorg and a group of Tarlaxians were brain-washed by the losers of the Tarlaxian Civil War led by Metalran. The brain-washed Tarlaxians were then servants of Lord Vortech and did as commanded.

That was until Megumi and her team rescued them. After he was freed, Turretorg swore an oath to help Megumi bring Vortech down. Now, he is a staunch friend of the Feudal Nerd Society.

Queen Empress Scorpainia

Bio:

Hailing from the poorest Tarlaxian family, Scorpainia was a bug-type Tarlaxian. She was beaten on by her peers as they squabbled over the little resources they had. Her fighting skills were honed both in public, and in private. She was one of the few Tarlaxians that knew the truth about her government. For a while, the Tarlaxians were going through a hard time, a great famine. The Senate, spokesmen of the people, were being strong armed into submission by her predecessor, King Emperor Armadillorg. However, Scorpainia knew of the corrupt clergy and so desired change. At the urging of her people, she marched onto the Senate building where Armadillorg was giving a speech to Tarlax 11. It was directed to the senate, the clergy, and the people.

She then demanded to challenge the King Emperor to combat over the Eye of Tarlax, the symbol of power for whoever rules the Tarlaxians. She won the initial fight, and so was given the Eye. She had to endure the raw, savage pain the Eye puts out as a byproduct of its power and knowledge for five minutes. She did so and the High Priest, a humanoid Owl and Unicorn hybrid called Owlicoragh, proclaimed her the Queen Empress and said that, by Tarlaxian tradition, her predecessor must die. She then spat in Owlicoragh’s eye, a grievous insult among Tarlaxians. She then gave evidence of the Church’s corruption and gave Owlicoragh one, simple order, step down or die.

Owlicoragh chose to fight her and seize power the old fashioned way. The duel ended with a dead Owlicoragh at Scorpainia’s feet. She was about to be given the mantle of the priesthood, but, instead, she chose Armadillorg as her High Priest. For a while, they ruled in coalition, moving to another universe until a drought hit them. Armadillorg had died in his bed and was replaced by Metalran, who was an agent of Vortech and ended up placing her under his spell and under Sontaran sway.

She was freed by Lacey Thanatos as she trained to become Kamen Rider Apocalypse and so moved the Tarlaxians to a new Tarlax 14 where they could fight with their gods, the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, and defeat Vortech once and for all.

Elphaba Thropp

That dress was hard to make.

Bio:

The Wicked Witch of the West from the Land of Oz, herself! The Western Country had known fear and terror under her rule. That is, until she ran into Megumi Hishikawa and her Vortex Riders. Instead of Dorothy melting her, it was them and a friend, Kamen Rider Wizard.

Death decided to give her another chance, and she took it, regaining her magic over time, and becoming a part of the support staff with Rusty and The Brigadier.

The Brigadier

Bio:

Having lived a life in the military, specifically UNIT, Sir Alistair Gordon Lethbridge Stewart had died peacefully and in bed. However, an old enemy of his and the Doctor’s, now in female form and calling herself Missy, had taken his body and converted him into a Cyberman. However, he kept his emotions and helped the Doctor thwart her plans yet again.

After leaving for parts unknown, he fell through a time-hole and discovered Rusty the Dalek alongside humans. He did something contrary to his usual man of action attitude and talked with them. After successful negotiations, he and Rusty formed a new UNIT, the Unified Nebular Intelligence Task force. Now, he fights as Tech support and Military advisor for the Vortex Riders.

Rusty’s human form

Here’s the resurrected Rusty with a sex-change! As you can see, I improved the colors from the original shell. I also wanted to keep the armaments of a Dalek in the design of her new outfit. The only issue I had was cropping as I made the original picture just barely too big for the scanner.

Rusty the Dalek

Davros, why must your children be so detail oriented?

Bio:

Rusty is an unusual case amongst the ultimate racists. He was an average Dalek until a battle left him adrift in space. His power source was cracked and leaked radiation. It broke a piece of programming that prevented Rusty from feeling anything but hatred against non-Daleks. Seeing the birth of a star made Rusty realize that life will always come back despite the Daleks’ best efforts.

He was picked up by a ship and made the crew an offer; fix him up and he will help the humans fight the Daleks. The crew agreed and set to work. Sadly, the work damaged the creature inside and so the Doctor had to intervene. The Doctor, Clara, and a couple of crew members shrunk down and went inside the casing to fix Rusty. They fixed the crack, but without the radiation affecting him, Rusty fell back on his old programming.

Clara convinced the Doctor to restore Rusty’s memory of the star’s birth and linked his mind with the creature. The Dalek saw what made up the Doctor, but latched onto his hatred of the Daleks and so went on a murderous rampage against the Dalek rescue party.

Over time, he joined a newly formed Unified Nebular Intelligence Task force, UNIT. He had made friends with an old member and a figurehead called Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart; a formerly dead man now restored as a Cyberman. Now Rusty acts as a Colonel and fights alongside the Brigadier.

A recent adventure resulted in his meeting of Princess Megumi and her Vortex Riders, from other universes. He, along with the Brigadier, joined the Vortex Riders as Tech Support and manage the gateway on Vorton.

Kamen Rider Pestilence

Kamen Rider Pestilence! You are infected with the disease of defeat!

Pestilence

I was hesitant to post this one, given what’s going on. But, she’s part of Megumi’s friends and I can’t ignore that.

Bio:

Sickness is a constant in any universe and none can escape it. Yes, an excellent immune system can stave it off, but even the best immune system can be caught off guard. Pestilence serves to remind us of that fact.

Personality-wise, think Shockwave, but with ethics and a moral code. She’s the scientist among the Four Horsemen, her specialty being biology. Even she can see the logic in ethics and emotions. It was those factors that let her obtain the Languorem Ring to become Kamen Rider Pestilence.

She helps War, Famine, and Death to train Lacey Thanatos to be Kamen Rider Apocalypse to help Megumi Hishikawa stop Lord Vortech and Megumi’s father, Hiro Adachi.
